Growing and Care Instructions

Sunlight: Place the plant where it can receive at least six hours of direct sunlight daily when conditions allow. Gradually acclimate a nursery-grown plant to stronger outdoor sunlight.

Soil: Use a well-draining growing medium. Olive plants do not thrive in persistently waterlogged soil.

Watering: Water thoroughly after planting and while the roots establish. Allow the soil to dry somewhat between waterings, adjusting for heat, rainfall, and container size. Do not leave the pot standing in water.

Container growing: A container can make it easier to manage watering and protect the plant during cold weather. Ensure the pot has drainage holes and repot as the plant grows.

Fertilizing: Apply a light, suitable fertilizer during active growth if needed, following the product label. Avoid excessive feeding.

Pruning: Trim as needed to maintain the desired shape. Confirm the cultivar’s growth habit before pruning heavily to preserve a particular dwarf form.

Cold protection: Protect young plants from prolonged freezing temperatures. Cold tolerance varies with the olive variety, plant age, and local conditions.
